"To love someone whom you like is insignificant. To love someone because they love you is of no consequence To love someone whom you do not like means you have learned a lesson in life. To love someone who blames you for no reason shows that you have learned the art of living..." ----- His Holiness Sri Sri Ravishankarji

Te Rational Mind
We Usually Do Only That Which Is Purposeful, Useful, And Rational.
Everything You See, You See Through The rational mind. But an intuition,
a discovery, new knowledge goes beyond the rational mind. Truth is
beyond the rational mind.
The rational mind is like a railroad
track that is fixed in grooves. A plane has no tracks. It can fly
anywhere. A balloon can float anywhere.
Some people step out of
the rational mind in order to rebel against society. They want to break
social law but for the ego's sake. They do it out of anger, hatred,
rebelliousness, and wanting attention. This is not stepping out of the
rational mind (though they think it is).
We step out of the
rational mind when we do something that has no purpose. Accepting that,
as an act, makes it a game. Life becomes lighter. If you are stuck with
only rational acts, life becomes a burden. Suppose you play a game
without a thought to winning or losing, just act irrationally. Making an
act without any purpose attached to it - it is freedom - like a dance.
So
just step out of the rational mind and you will find a greater freedom,
an unfathomable depth, and you will come face to face with reality.
Reality transcends logic and the rational mind. Until you transcend the
rational mind you will not get access to creativity and the infinite.
But
if you do an irrational act in order to find freedom, then it already
has a purpose and a meaning. It is no longer irrational. This knowledge
sheet has already spoiled it's own possibility.
Break the barrier of the rational mind and then find freedom for yourself.
